Re: Red Rocks 2010- Festivals, One Off Shows, Etc.

Mark our words: This year's Westword Music Showcase is going to be absolutely SICK! SICK! -- we tell you! Yesterday on KTCL, as you might have heard, we revealed part of the line-up. The best local acts spread out over ten stages across the Golden Triangle? Of course -- that's a given. But we've also added on some killer headliners this year including, Ghostland Observatory, the Dirty Projectors, Neon Indian, Single File and Oh My Stars, with more to come.

Oh and are you ready for the best part? For a limited time, tickets are just $9.33! Really! Hell, you'd expect to pay at least that much just to see Ghostland and its killer light show, right, or to have your circuits completely blown by the Dirty Projectors, wouldn't you? Exactly. So haste not. Pick up your tix here on Westword.com this Friday, and then mark Saturday, June 19 on your calendar in red ink!

Pavement will play the mid-sized Broomfield arena on Sept. 9. Tickets, $30, will go on sale at 10 a.m. March 12 via tickethorse.com. The Colorado date will be the band’s only show between Kansas City and the west coast, according to Don Strasburg, the vice president and talent buyer with AEG Live Rocky Mountains who secured the show.

“It’s a true honor that Pavement chose us and our new venue to host their return to Colorado and their return as a band,” Strasburg told The Denver Post. “We don’t know how long they’re going to continue to play together, but for Colorado to have at least one opportunity to see them play is special.”
